These are two spacers meant to shorten the OEM hatch pullup springs, to give them a bit of strenght back as they weaken with time and the hatch won't lift enough to be opened with one hand and by the first time.

There are a lot of complete replacement mods online, but they are costly... (70 to 100$).

Printing:
All materials are suited for this project, I used PLA and it worked out really well. Print the spacers at 100% infill and at 0.2 or 0.25mm layer height.

Installation:
To take off the parts of your car, simply twist them by 90° and they pop out.

Then, pulll back the sleeve of each spring.
Push up the spring with yoour fingers or a tool to get access to the metal inner shaft. Once done, slide in the 5mm spacer. If needed, slide in the second 3mm spacer in the same way as done before.

Put everything back together and reinstall it on your car! You're DONE!

These spacers should help lift the hatch up a bit again, but clearly the OEM springs are to weak and should either be replaced by other OEM ones or by modded reinforced ones.
